What does it really matter about those games? You just lost at home to Texas A&M who is gawd awful. Should you get to play them earlier in the year? Later? On the road? Neutral site?


What's been the Bama excuse when they've lost a game or luck horrible after LSU? That you played a physical game and your players were tired and worn down. I can guarantee if Bama loses to State that will be the excuse.

I say the same thing for Auburn. Our schedule has been hell this year. I'm not saying it's the only reason we lost but it definitely played a role

It takes a whole new level of delusion to act as though Auburn was getting mistreated by the refs in the A&M game.

The holds on Garrett were downright comically bad. How often do you get a commentator and multiple journalists raving about lack of holding calls?

Williams clearly fumbled when he was injured. He catches the ball and takes a step forward to run before getting hit. It was a sympathy call of some kind to call that incomplete.

Auburn essentially just had to throw the ball up in the air and they would get a PI call if an A&M defender was within 5 yards of one of their WR's.

All Aubie had to do was figure out how to hand the ball off and snap it without dropping the football. If you can't do that you don't deserve to win. No ref caused those fumbles and if you are really hoping that a ref is going to bail you out by saying your guy had control first at the bottom of a scrum where he doesn't emerge with the ball you have lost it.

Can't be auburn. They would have called a holding penalty or two when myles was being horse collard as he destroyed your left tackle time and time again

The only time we've lost a game since 2007 directly after LSU was because of Jonny Manziel. Pretty simple.

Refs suck, make bad calls against all teams not named Bama.

LSU started drives 1 and 11.

Any Aggie who doesn't believe Auburn recovered that fumble on the goal line is just kidding themselves. It was clear enough for several media types to see this, so you can spare me your excuses for why the referees gave you the ball.

Writers from the Saturday Down South website and al.com have also said it looked like Auburn recovered the fumble. Those are just a couple I know about.

Well I write for SECRant fan message boards and I saw the play on my 60 inch TV and there was zero way to tell who grabbed it at the end.

Artis-Payne had it underneath him at one point but clearly he wasn't man enough to control it.

Your opinion is about as worth as much as me saying I didn't see anybody holding Miles Garrett

If the refs on the field would have called him down like they should have it would have held up after booth review

The on-field crew is the problem. They're all old and have failing eye sight. Being a referee should have the same stipulations as Air Traffic Control

If employed by the FAA, the latest one can start training is usually age 30, and retirement is mandatory at 56 years of age. However, retired military air traffic controllers may qualify for appointment after reaching 31 years of age.

Well, they certainly don't hate Auburn. Not sure how Auburn fans can receive so many favorable calls and then complain about officiating.

That's what I'm saying. It should gave been Auburns ball. Only if CAP could hold onto it and not let Julian unfairly rip it from his hands. If only

Your schedule is brutal, we all knew it would take its toll eventually. The undisciplined play coupled with some sketchy fundamental's on the defensive side of the ball finally caught up.
